Devices can change their pci ids if they download firmware to them
and then reset and come back the next boot as a new device.
pci utils can't change the pci id of the device, so I really doubt
that this is the issue.
Has any of your BIOS settings changed to perhaps change the device to operate
in a different mode?
Oh, and the pci device ordering and numbers can change per boot, so don't
rely on the fact that the device was numbered 02 one boot is really the
same device called 02 the next boot, that's normal and natural and should
not be an issue here.
According to your lspci output, you really do have a realtek device
in this system. Perhaps older kernels were not binding a driver to it?
Anyway, is the problem that this driver is not properly controlling
your network connection?
If so, what is the problem? Can you get an ip address? Any data through it?
